hello juhu users.

hi there,

it has been quite a while since the last update, but I have been a little bit busy graduating and finding a job, sorry :).

right now I am working on an iphone port for the official sdk, but if there are still some juhu users left, I might even put some time and effort into a new release for the desktop. so if you are using juhu and have some ideas and/or wishes, just leave a comment or send me a mail. thanks for the support.

I'm still using juhu! Waiting for an update and also some updates to Jaiku or I might be forced to move to Twitter or Pownce. I don't have any real suggestions except for cleaning up the UI ... maybe even an adobe air version.

okay, four people still using juhu. that's not too bad. thanks for your comments. I guess I have to disappoint adam when I say: nope, there won't be any air around here, sorry, but I am more a native kind of guy, however, a ui clean up might be in the range of possibilities and I am open to any suggestion.

juhu is quite polished i think - as a jaiku addict i use it 24/7 and the only problem that i see is when i'm not wired and wifi signal is not perfect. but if u decide to leave it as it is - it works for me - thanks a lot for your hard work and good luck on ur iphone/ipod touch app - if only app store is international - i'll gladly pay for it :-)

mobileJuhu does crash occasionally when submitting a Jaiku...doesn't submit it. It's happened only a couple of times and I THINK it's when a jaiku is submitted and mobilejuhu is refreshing is when it happens.Reason for my thinking is that when I restart the app, the "new posts" indicator is on the icon.

@søren: basically the website itself and the jaiku api juhu uses to send messages are independent from each other in the way that a working website doesn't guarantee a working api. that said, I just tried to post from juhu and it worked, so I am not sure why it doesn't for you...

@greg: thanks for the praise :) the rewrite will hopefully fix those kind of crashes. for now, I hope it's not too annoying and you keep on using mobile juhu.

@somemorequestions: Thanx for the answer!Strange – I tried to get my API key from Jaiku.com again (of course I did so before and it has worked several times). The key I obtained today was CHANGED and Juhu works with the new key.

I use Juhu 24/7 and works great. Unfortunately just a few days ago the Jaiku API seems to be changed and no comments to jaikus are received now on juhu. So I think a new desktop version would be great.

juhu?
